Anthony,

Thanks for trying the webstart version of the IDV. We are currently
transitioning the IDV to Java 7, and unfortunately the webstart
version of the IDV is in need of attention. This is high on our priority
list, but will take a bit of time. In the meantime, please use the
regular desktop version of the IDV.
